Abstract

In a virtual learning environment, it is important to be able to correctly assess students to help them receive the best possible education. This can have a big impact on the way disabled students learn and their goals for gaining a high level of qualification. This paper investigated different fuzzy logic-based techniques for student academic evaluations in a 3D virtual learning environment (VLE). Some of the techniques were found to be especially helpful for disabled students, and the paper also described the development and design of evaluation systems that take this into account. The study used fuzzy logic to study how well disabled students are doing in their classes over a whole year. This fuzzy logic was developed using MATLAB software, which uses features extracted from student evaluations. Disabled students' characteristics (such as experience and understanding, problem-solving skills, etc.) have been measured and combined with a 3D virtual learning environment built using open-source software, Moodle, and Sloodle. This way, disabled students can interact with their courses inside a 3D VLE using Sloodle. According to the findings, which were based on 20 disabled students, fuzzy logic technology used in 3D Virtual Learning Environments (VLEs) produces different results than traditional assessments. The difference between the two is about 3.9 points on average. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
